About Me:

I am a rising junior at Emory University pursuing a B.S. in Chemistry with a minor in Physics. After completing my current degree, I hope to pursue a PhD in Chemistry or Chemical Engineering before applying my STEM background to a career in the field of IP law.

Along with rigorous classwork, I am also performing research through the Simon Blakey lab at Emory. Under the guidance of a graduate student mentor, I'm helping to develop and characterize substrates for the total organic synthesis of ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides, known as RiPPs. I am currently entering my second year with the lab and plan to continue through graduation.

During my free time, I enjoy music and singing. I have been in choir since middle school, competing in statewide choir competitions through the FVA All-State program. I continue this passion by taking private vocal lessons with Emory professors and singing in the Emory University choir.
